On an instance level, you can close registration after a threshold level of users that you are comfortable with. Then, you can defederate the instances that are driven by capitalistic ideals like eternal growth (e.g. Threads from meta)

The "other criminal activity" probably includes many horrible things. Not just a teen selling shrooms. So, I am not so sure that's really what we want.

As for git, many basic concepts (e.g. staging area) clicked for me after reading some articles that Atlassian (people behind BitBucket) wrote. Other than that, I'd recommend adamj.eu 's book "Git DX" which is on gumroad. Haven't read it, tho. But I read his Django DX and like 90% of it was stuff I had to learn on my own, and thought: oh, how come I didn't find this book earlier...

This! And, baby-steps: don't go about installing every app you see. Try backup strategies, put them to test (bring service down and up again with data from backup). Play, have fun.

Perhaps an example with another function helps, but I will use a list of numbers (lists' syntax uses square brackets).

values = [1, 2, 3]
total = sum(values)

Check "Image Toolbox" on fdroid

Sorry, I hope you understand that was just an error on my behalf most probably related to being tired and typing in multiple languages sometimes can be a strainer.

Hi. What's the 'egoist' philosophical or political stance? I never heard of it before... Can you expand a little bit or share any manifesto sort of text??

Containers sharing the same network (e.g. gluetun) should be able to see each other's by their hostnames, yet the VPN blocks that by its very nature, so... Check out https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun-wiki/blob/main/setup/inter-containers-networking.md

Oh, you're right the UI code is closed source. Hate to admit it, but it kind of makes sense given it looks so nice 🙈

That's precisely what made me install it locally. So far, I had no issues. I guess the rate-limiting comes from the fact of being public. And you can aggregate results from many providers, add filters, etc. I only had one issue with duck, but solved it after updating the container.

I've been on Linux for over a decade. Two years ago, I installed Okular (pdf reader) on my friend's laptop. I was surprised to see it was a rather old Okular version. So the trouble goes further down. Maybe is just a lack of volunteers/ maintainers. Well, given Windows is paid, this would be just plain understaffing.

It's worth mentioning that my current app store on Linux is flathub.org/setup (it's distro agnostic). I highly recommend you explore WSL and Flatpak (flatpak is the underlying 'packaging' tech behind flathub). Here's some good news from 2018, https://www.phoronix.com/news/Flatpak-Windows-Prototype
